Description

Stapled (saddle-stitched) booklets are a sleek, cost-effective way to present high-quality, professionally bound content with a polished finish. Whether you’re crafting an event program, product catalog, training manual, or corporate brochure, these booklets deliver crisp, secure binding and a lay-flat design, ensuring easy readability and lasting durability.

Why choose stapled booklets?

  • Polished presentation – ideal for showcasing professional content with clean, sharp pages.
  • Lightweight yet sturdy – easy to handle, distribute, and perfect for everyday use.
  • Flexible sizing – compact A6, standard A5, or full A4, tailored to suit your needs.
  • Cost-effective impact – high-quality appeal without a hefty price tag.

Our stapled booklets are ideal for a number of use cases such as:

  • Event programs & orders of service – stylish, structured, easy to follow.
  • Product catalogs – premium look, clear details, seamless browsing.
  • Corporate brochures & reports – polished presentation for professionals.
  • Training manuals & guides – structured layouts for effortless learning.
  • Menus & price lists – sleek, practical, customer-friendly.

 

Some important information when setting up your booklet:

  • Saddle-stitched booklets must have a page count divisible by 4 to ensure proper binding.
  • PDFs must be supplied as single pages, not spreads, to ensure accurate printing and layout. Spreads combine two pages into one file, which can disrupt alignment.
  • A4 Booklets are always bound on the 297mm (long edge). For A4 Landscape artwork, this will result in the booklets being bound across the top edge (akin to a flipbook rather than a conventional booklet)
  • Please include a 3mm bleed on all sides; need help on setting this up? Please see our quick guide below:

 

Adding bleed to your file

Adding bleed ensures your design extends beyond the trim edge, preventing white borders after cutting. Here’s how to set it up:

  • Photoshop: Add 3mm (0.125 inches) to each side when creating a document. Use rulers to set guides at the trim size and extend the design beyond them. Save as a PDF, ensuring bleed is included.
  • InDesign: In the New Document window, enter 3mm (0.125 inches) in the Bleed section. When exporting as PDF, check Use Document Bleed Settings.
  • Illustrator: In File > Document Setup, set 3mm (0.125 inches) bleed. When saving as a PDF, ensure bleed is included under Marks and Bleeds.
  • Canva: Canva adds bleed automatically. To view it, go to File > View settings > Show print bleed. When downloading, select PDF Print and check Crop marks and bleed.

 

Technical Info

  • For Saddle Stitch Booklets, please submit artwork as one file in running order (single pages not spreads).
  • For example, a 20-page brochure should be supplied as one PDF with 20 pages running in page order.
  • Booklets must contain a page total divisible by 4 (i.e. 8, 12, 16, 20 etc…)
  • It is recommended you do not place words, page numbers or images too close to the edges of each page.  We would recommend a safe zone on all sides of at least 5mm for Saddle Stitched brochures.
  • Include 3mm bleed on all sides
  • Supply as a CMYK PDF
  • Scale 1:1

Most booklets are VAT Exempt as bound products – If your print contains space for writing or colouring this may make your item VAT rateable. If this is the case, we will contact you
